LONGLISTED FOR THE 2026 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR TRANSLATED LITERATURE
An unforgiving tale of political horror and womanhood by a writer that is fearless.--Mariana Enriquez, author of Our Share of Night
A propulsive work of feminist gothic that blends Indonesian folklore with Islamic mysticism and examines the tension between freedom and responsibility, violence and care, familial obligation and the limits of sisterhood
Night of the Thousand Hells is the story of three sisters: the caretaker, the traveler, and the bride. Mutiara and Maya find their lives irrevocably altered when their younger sister, Annisa, straps a bomb to her chest and commits a devastating act of violence. What led Annisa to such an abominable act? As her surviving sisters grapple with grief, guilt, and unanswered questions, their search leads them to long-concealed secrets, forsaken family bonds, and the unsettling prophecies of their grandmother, whose enigmatic wisdom has shaped the destinies of women across generations.
Intan Paramaditha is an international literary sensation whose Night of a Thousand Hells is an urgent, haunting, and subversive blend of mysticism, horror, domestic drama, and social novel that defies genres and expectations.
